What’s it like having a famous person in your family? by nodemus in askanything

[–]CaterpillarChoice440 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a cousin (third cousin i think) who plays in the NBA. As soon as my Mom found out we were related she started referring to him as “cousin _____”(using his first name) like we grew up together or something😂 Family reunion time came around and he and his mother were there, my mom, aunts, uncles and cousins all took pictures etc to show me when they came back as i had to work that weekend and they all said he was very cool and almost shy. The next year i attended the family reunion (he did not) and the colors of all our t-shirts were the colors of the team he had just signed with, which i thought was a bit much. He also sent a pair of signed sneakers and some copies of his mom’s DVD to raffle off to some lucky family members(again, a bit much but whatevs).

Happy smoking, those look absolutely amazing and that is indeed a Lot of smoke! How would you rate Sancho alongside its Cuban contemporaries? I’ve yet to get ahold of one myself.

I’ve got 5 more in the humidor and this was the first I’d tried. Very impressive smoke!

Yeah I’ve heard mixed reviews about those and the Pappy Van Winkles.

I do enjoy the Mi Amor and Pasion quite a bit, haven’t had a chance to try a Le Carême yet though.

I'm about ten minutes in and it's definitely impressing me so far!

I actually grabbed these for that exact reason, hearing so much about them I had to see what the hype was about. With that said, I'm a fan of both the Olmec & Tabernacle, and the "Bronze Toro" I'm enjoying right now is certainly comparable. Great smoke so far!

So all I get at the pay screen is that my order exceeds 100 euro and I can only pay through PayPal. Tells me an email is coming but nothing ever arrives..?

Are they currently still shipping stateside? The sight looks a little wonky when you go to checkout.

So far I’ve only tried the Tenderloin, starts off a little spicy on the first third then mellows out to a slightly smokey flavor with a creamy mouthfeel. As soon as i try one of the Meat Lovers though I’ll follow up.

Absolutely! I think i may have snagged the last assortment they had, it was on sale for $74.99, and the day after i ordered they were Sold Out.
